In this article we study support $\tau$-tilting modules, semibricks and more over blocks of group algebras. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, $\tilde{G}$ a finite group and $G$ a normal subgroup of…

Molecular graphs generally contain subgraphs (known as groups) that are identifiable and significant in composition, functionality, geometry, etc. Flat latent representations (node embeddings or graph embeddings) fail to represent, and…

In this paper we give an elementary proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra for polynomials over the rational tropical semi-ring. We prove that, tropically, the rational numbers are algebraically closed. We provide a simple algorithm…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety with totally degenerate reduction over a non-Archimedean field. We describe the moduli space of semihomogeneous vector bundles on $A$ from the perspective of non-Archimedean uniformization and show that the…

A novel way to use SMT (Satisfiability Modulo Theories) solvers to compute the tropical prevariety (resp. equilibrium) of a polynomial system is presented. The new method is benchmarked against a naive approach that uses purely polyhedral…

The prototypical examples of tropical compactifications are compactifications of complements of hyperplane arrangements, which posses a number of remarkable properties not satisfied by more general tropical compactifications of closed…

This article develops a theory of cell combinatorics and cell 2-representations for differential graded 2-categories. We introduce two types of partial preorders, called the strong and weak preorder. We then analyse and compare them. The…

We study isometric representations of the semigroup $\mathbb{Z}_+\backslash \{1\}$. Notion of an inverse representation is introduced and a complete description (up to unitary equivalence) of such representations is given. Also, we study a…

In the last few years there has been a growing interest towards methods for statistical inference and learning based on computational geometry and, notably, tropical geometry, that is, the study of algebraic varieties over the min-plus…

This article studies two notions of generalized matroid representations motivated by algorithmic information theory and cryptographic secret sharing. The first (entropic representability) involves discrete random variables, while the second…

We introduce quivers of valuated matroids and study their tropical parameter spaces. We define quiver Dressians, which parametrize containment of tropical linear spaces after tropical matrix multiplication, and show that tropicalizations of…

This is part of an ongoing project to find a general algebraic framework for semiring theory. The structure theory of semirings is quite challenging, largely because of the lack of negation, and such basic properties such as unique…

A quasi-automatic semigroup is defined by a finite set of generators, a rational (regular) set of representatives, such that if a is a generator or neutral, then the graph of right multiplication by a on the set of representatives is a…

Tropicalization is a procedure that assigns polyhedral complexes to algebraic subvarieties of a torus. If one fixes a weighted polyhedral complex, one may study the set of all subvarieties of a toric variety that have that complex as their…

Tropical algebraic geometry offers new tools for elimination theory and implicitization. We determine the tropicalization of the image of a subvariety of an algebraic torus under any homomorphism from that torus to another torus.
